The Sheriff’s Work Alternative Program (SWAP) is made up of non-violent offenders charged with DUI and other misdemeanor crimes who “swap” jail time for a community service sentence. Under the supervision of specially trained sheriff’s deputies, the crews work throughout the county on a variety of public works projects such as cleaning parks, viaducts and streets.
Offenders sentenced to SWAP must call a SWAP office within 24 hours of leaving court and register at a SWAP office within thirty days from the court date.
SWAP Office direct numbers: (312) 603-2480; (312) 433-5755; (312) 433-5757; FAX (312) 603-2485
Documents needed to register:
- Court Order
- Picture I.D.
- Full time students must bring student I.D.
- 16 or under must have a parent or guardian with them
- No children are permitted
- Fees can be paid by credit card at any registration site, cash and personal checks are not accepted. Money orders are only accepted at the Maywood office. NO OTHER OFFICE ACCEPTS MONEY ORDERS. Offender fees and work schedule will be reviewed at time of registration.
